Overview

The ABB NF71E-13 (SKU: NF71E-13) is an 8-pole contactor relay designed for reliable switching of auxiliary and control circuits. Manufactured by ABB Electrification, this model features a block-type design with a permanently fixed auxiliary contact block. The contactor relays are equipped with mechanically linked auxiliary contact elements, compliant with Annex L of IEC 60947-5-1 and marked with the "Mechanically Linked" symbol, ensuring dependable operation in critical control applications. A key advantage of the NF71E-13 is its advanced electronic coil interface, which accepts a broad control voltage range. This universal coil design simplifies inventory and application across different global power systems. Only four distinct coil types are required to cover control voltages from 24 to 500 V AC/DC (50/60 Hz) and 20 to 500 V DC. This capability allows the contactor relay to manage substantial control voltage variations without the need for coil replacement, reducing downtime and maintenance costs. The electronic coil interface also contributes to reduced panel energy consumption and provides distinct closing and opening characteristics. For enhanced reliability and ease of installation, the NF71E-13 includes built-in surge suppression, eliminating the need for external surge suppressor components. This integrated protection safeguards the device and connected circuitry from voltage spikes. The 8-pole configuration offers a high density of contacts. The base unit provides 7 NO and 1 NC contacts. Additional add-on auxiliary contact blocks can be mounted on the side for further customization, and a wide range of accessories is available to meet diverse application requirements.
